Jeanne Calment was born on February 21, 1875, and lived to the age of 122 in Arles, France (home of the painter Vincent Van Gogh, whom she met as a little girl). At 85, she took up fencing lessons. At 100, she was still riding her bike. She said she ate more than two pounds of chocolate a week and only quit smoking at age 120, not for health reasons, but because she could not see well enough to light her cigarettes. She credited her longevity to port wine, her sense of humor and a diet rich in olive oil. She died in August 1997.

Damn, looks like quitting smoking will kill you within 2 years.

Would you want to live to 100?
Where would you live?
Would you run out of $$?
Would you see all your friends die?
You might just live as a breathing mush-bag in a nursing home somewhere paid for by Medicare.
Is this a good thing?

All those French women who live to the century mark recommend smoking and drinking on a regular basis.
I definitely think a healthy sense of humor is the key. Laughter is the best medicine.
